What makes the best Opiate & Heroin Addiction Treatment?
A wall at the border.

If you did what you said you did it was criminal and he’s damn lucky he didn’t die because of your stupidity.
I actually interviewed a local elected official and asked them why we are spending money on safe injection sights. The answer was of course no answer.
I think my local politicians would rather be “on the cutting edge” and say “we are the 1st in the nation” to domsomething rather than actually save people.

Firm believer in the 12 steps but you have to safely detox then first.
Not any more. The drug industry has solved that problem with Narcan.
Drug addicts can get even more deadly highs and be brought back, over and over.
For most opiate ODs we have removed death as a consequence.
Druggies couldn’t be happier. We can now go back to the important work of enabling the addict population to grow even larger. And we are succeeding, you can’t believe how well we are succeeding.

So now we can have not only addicts, but brain damaged addicts! Narcan doesn’t repair the damage of the overdose, just brings the plant back.
You have courage and speak a deep truth here.
You are correct about detox, rehab and the window of opportunity. I threw in detox since we don’t take anybody in until proper medically supervised detox has cleared then.
Would you be opposed to properly detoxing a person before his/her introduction to God?
“”If he was an opiate addict, he wouldn’t die, detox is like a bad flu””
Horse Chit!! Any addict be it alcohol of drugs can go into Grand Mal seizures and possible Cardiac Arrest if not properly detoxed.
Yes...around here you have to have a rehab bed before you get into detox.
Though the question wasnt for, I feel the need to interject because that was a fabulous movie. There are some scenes that really make your skin crawl and it doesn’t paint a pretty picture of an addicts life.T2 will be out this year.
You were feeling psychosomatic relief, I’m sure. It takes alot longer than 5 minutes to actually feel the medicine work.
I detox them regularly. Opiate detox is to keep them comfortable. It is a flu in discomfort.
There is a big drama out there about the detox from opiates. Read Dalrymple’s Romancing Opiates for more information.

“I detox them regularly.”
What is your detox program like and what is used to offset/help with withdrawal symptoms?
Symptom drugs, Bentyl, tigan, Robaxin, etc
Librium is there in case they lied about ETOH
I read an article the other day that said 15 years ago 10,000 people a year died from heroin ODs. Today that numbers is 40,000. That’s 30,000 more directly because of open borders but no we dont need a wall because that is racist.

Leftist thinning the herd at a profit.
That’s the funniest post I have read in a long time
too many folks get detoxed and head right back out to do it all again.....
You and I both know that no matter what the academics tell us, the statistics for folks like us aren’t good
If the addict does not know God, the addict will find God at the bottom of the darkest hole.
He, at such time, will either take God’s outstretched Hand, or he will remain at the bottom of the hole, where he could very easily die.
It is up to the addict to make this choice and take this action. No one else can do it but him.
Whether or not you detox the addict is not relevant, because he is waging mortal combat with a demon that not only resides in him, but is a part of him.
You cannot lock that demon away, much as you may want to.
There are indeed people who will be beyond saving. Sometimes the demon wins.
If the addict does not come to the realization that he wants a better life for himself, then he will not have one.
